    The A7 is what you are looking for.
    A7 Rebuildable Atomizer - Chrome

    I use both A7s and A7-minis on both mechanical & regulated PVs.

    I wrap mico style coils around 3 strands of 0.8mm silica string using 30ga wire. (2 ohm)
    They hold about 7 drops of liquid, (aprox. 20 puffs) and only leak if you overfill them.
    With air flow through the 510 connector they were designed strictly for mouth to lung.

    I personally think the new Kayfun 4 has a tight draw. Of course it's adjustable but with the couple I have I find it easy to do a lung hit. The draw is almost too tight for my liking. If you do decide on the kayfun 4 I suggest you watch a you Tube video on how it's put together and how it's opened. The build itself is easy it's just a bit different to open if you don't already know that.hope this helps. Best wishes.

    You are looking for an RDA, Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer, right?

    A good, cheap starting point would be an Igo-L for single coils and Igo-W for dual coils. Both have small air holes for a tight draw. I have some that I started dripping with many months ago and still use them. They are solid stainless steel, well made, and a great value. You should be able to easily find either for well under 20 bucks each, more like 15 bucks.

    thanks looking into that now, how would the draw compare to the nautilus on the smallest hole ?

    I've never used a Nautilus, so I don't know. I've used the old Kanger Protanks and to the best of my recollection the Igos are just as tight. Both Igos (W + L) are good for mouth-to-lung hits, where you take the vapor into your mouth, then inhale into your lungs, much like smoking a .....

    In fact the dual air holes on the Igo-W are absolutely tiny. You can see both of them at myvaporstore.com and they are right around 15 dollars each, give or take.

    IGO-L is a great recommendation. Or step into a genesis like the SAT22. Excellent tight draw and nic delivery.
    A 26g coil at .7 with cotton makes it kinda "drippy".

    Edit: I don't know your budget. But you can get a Beyond Vape Neptune hybrid (Version 1)
    from their ebay store for around $50. Single or dual coils, and tighter draw with smaller airholes.

    If you're looking for a dripper, I'd recommend the Magma. If you're looking for a tank, I'd recommend the Kayfun Lite Plus. The Magma has a fairly deep well and you can build only one coil if you'd like. And the airflow adjustment for it allows you to dial it down really tight (for a dripper). I use mine for tasting juices I've mixed to see if the taste is right before making a large batch. The Kayfun Lite is a tight draw no matter how you dial the airflow.

    Are there anyone's in particular your looking at? From my experience
    just changing drip tip on some of my atty's makes my mouth to lung or vice versa.

    Secound this comment. Get a small holed drip tip. If i want a tight draw i put the drip tip from my russian 91% on any thing and that works smallest hole on any tip i have seen

    I think I'm going to give this set up a try, thanks for the info! I'd been using disposable cartomizers for several years now and am looking for an alternative. So far I've tried an IGO-W and a Vision eternity. I like the eternity the most, however using 28 ga wire makes rebuilding a royal pain. The A7 appears to be very similar, with the air hole below the coil but it has the more normal screw in posts, vs the itty bitty holders that have to snap over the posts on the eternity. Currently using rayon, but wondering now if I shouldn't try some silica just for the simplicity....

    Another option it it wasn't suggested already is the IGO-W. I just started rebuilding a few days ago and that one is pretty easy to build on and does have a pretty tight draw. Most reviews I've read all claim it needs to be drilled out, and as a matter of fact, I ended up enlarging one of the two holes myself today. I never thought I'd need to do that, coming from years of cartomizers, but it has made it perform better I think ...
